Answer #1

At the price of 14,

Quantity demanded = 60-4*14

= 4 units.

Quantity supplied = 6*14 - 60

= 84-60

= 24 units.

We can see that the quantity demanded is less than the quantity supplied, so there will be a surplus of good at this price.

Surplus = Quantity supplied - Quantity demanded

= 24 - 4

= 20 units.

So, at the price of 14, we can see that the surplus is 20 units.

So, option 2 is the correct answer.
